			Wayne, do you have any tips or recommended tools for keeping the top 'tab' of the shock from turning?  I've been struggling for a little while now with that piece.  Thanks, Jordan.

			You can use vice grips but you do not want to mar the shaft. Use some rubber hose over the jaws to protect the shock shaft
